Today is Indigenous Literacy Day! Head over to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation to see all the festivities online and in person celebrating the diversity and multilingual literacy of First Nations Communities, and the power of storytelling.

We thought we’d take the chance at Booked Out to highlight some of our brilliant speakers and their books for young readers that feature Indigenous characters and themes. What a great day to pick up one of these books from your library or local bookstore!
